5. From the OS/2 desktop open the Templates folder. Use the right mouse button to drag the Printer icon (not
the Network Printer icon) onto the desktop.
6. The Create a Printer window should be open (if it is not, double click on the printer icon).
- Type in any name for the printer.
- Select the default printer driver. If the desired printer driver is not listed, click on the Install new
Printer Driver button, and then add the driver.
- Choose the output port. IBM TCP/IP automatically creates 8 named pipes called \PIPE\LPD0
through \PIPE\LPD7. Pick an unused port, and then double-click on that port.
NOTE: Early versions of Warp Server have a bug in which the named pipes do not appear (the problem does not
affect Warp Connect or LAN Server). This problem is fixed via a patch available from IBM.
You will get the Settings window. Enter the following:
LPD server The TROY print server name (from HOSTS file) or IP address.
LPD printer For most applications, use the TROY PocketPro 100S binary service BINARY_P1 to pass
data through unmodified. However, if you are printing text files from the DOS or OS/2 command
prompt, you should use the text service TEXT_P1, which will add carriage returns for proper formatting
of the data (but will potentially distort graphics printouts).
Host name The IP name of the OS/2 file server
User The IP address of the OS/2 file server
You may leave the other entries blank. Click on the OK button. The pipe should be highlighted; if not,
click on it.
- Click on the Create button to create the printer.
